The North of England Gymnastic Association is one of the 10 English Regions that, along with the Home Nations, forms the structure of British Gymnastics. Gymnastics in the Region is the responsibility of the Regional Executive Committee, which oversees the work of the Technical Committees responsible for the various Gymnastic disciplines and also County Federations where these exist. All Clubs in the region are required to pay an annual affiliation fee to N.E.G.A. Fees are due on January 1st each year and should be paid no later than January 31st. The current fee is £40 with an additional supplement based on the number of Bronze and Silver members registered with British Gymnastics. Affiliation to the Region offers many benefits, including a Handbook, website listing, regular newsletter and the opportunity to join in all regionally organised competitions, courses, seminars, squads, awards and events. Affiliated Clubs also receive regular information and news from the Regional and National Committees. To be accepted as an affiliated Club:

The Club must have a BG trained and approved Welfare Officer
